Step-by-step explanation:
They were supposed to flip 16/6 so that it's 6/16. Then multiply 5/3 by 6/16 to get 30/48, which becomes 5/8.
<span>Two teams are playing basketball. Team 1 scored 3.5 times the number of points per basket. Team 2 scored 8 times the number of points per basket. They would've each scored the same amount of points if Team 1 had scored 54 more points.
Solve:
54+3.5x=8x :Write out the equation
-3.5x -3.5x :Subtract 3.5x from both sides to isolate the variable
54=4.5x :Simplify
/4.5 /4.5 :Divide by 4.5 on both sides
12=x :Answer=12
Next you would find each team's score:
8x= 8(12)= 96 :substitute and solve
Each team score is 96 points
(Note: Since each team score was equal, you don't have to solve for each team, just one and preferably the easier one, and that is the score that each team scored.) </span>
2.40+2.20=4.60
9-4.60=4.40

Let the width be x, then length = 24 +x
Perimeter = 2(length + width)
2(x + 24 + x) = 172
2(2x + 24) = 172
4x - 48 = 172
4x = 172 + 48 = 220
x = 220/4 = 55
Therefore, width is 55 and length is 55 + 24 = 79
